Great place to stay while in ethiopia, there was a small couple little quirks
1. Key card stopped working twice for elevator
2. Its not clear that you cannot go past the floor yiu are staying on. Theres a view from the 9th floor i couldnt get to.
Other than these really small things this place is perfect. Right around the bend from the airport, great friendly staff
I booked the junior suite and it was excellent.
There were some hiccups with the lack of milk being offered as standard but after a conversation with the management team this was rectified. I had a city view suite which gave me a view of the airport and the roads beneath, but if I return I'll be seeking the courtyard view, as its very pleasant and the hotel do a light show with the water fountains at night.
In the main the staff were friendly and helpful, so will be visiting again
